Based in the adventure capital of the world, Gap Year New Zealand takes all the stress out of moving and working abroad. As the only program of its kind, Gap Year NZ is the ultimate experience; providing snow-sports access, employment opportunities, countless adventures and 24/7 local support. Gap Year New Zealand will maximize your adventure here by providing a social atmosphere to your trip. We
will organise activities and events throughout the program and help co-ordinate your experience of a lifetime. On top of this Gap Year NZ provides exclusive adventures, from epic sightseeing and guided hiking around New Zealand’s great walks to bungee jumping, skydiving, and multi day white water rafting trips. We will provide job opportunities for every member of the Gap Year NZ program in the operations, rentals, hospitality and retail industries. If that's not adventurous enough for you, Gap Year NZ can also kick-start your winter career through snow sports instructor training programs. On top of this, every full Gap Year NZ member will have secured accommodation in the beautiful town of Wanaka. This will be a spacious self-catered flat-share with modern furnishings, excellent locations and all expenses pre-paid. Gap Year NZ will really ensure you hit the ground running. We’re on-hand 24/7 to provide local advice. We will arrange bank and tax IRD appointments for you on arrival along and a local orientation with your fellow Gap Year NZ members. We also offer a free transfer shuttle from Queenstown airport to Wanaka so you don’t need to worry about a thing. With your travel arrangements organized, your income sorted and your housing expenses covered all that is left to do is begin your adventure of a lifetime and make all the fun decisions such as; which mountain to ski, which iconic experience to explore or which bar to drink at?
